24-7 Van Lines Turns to Onboard Technology to Eliminate Paper Logs
24-7 Van Lines has announced that it will install computer sensors in all of its moving trucks to reduce driver violations associated with paper logs.
Going forward, the each rig’s computer will automatically scan and electronically log at which times the truck is turned on or off, the speed at which the vehicle is traveling, and various fuel efficiency factors that usually need to be manually recorded by drivers.
Onboard technology is unique in that it automatically tracks everything the driver does.
This reduces company liability for driver errors once they’re trained to eliminate illegal break periods or other delinquent behavior. It also aids drivers in reducing the number of errors made when writing information into paper logs on a regular basis by making these paper logs obsolete.
The company expects the change to reduce fuel expenditure, automatically create itemized expenditure reports for use at the corporate office, and increase vehicle and driver efficiency a great deal.
